Eating:<\/u> Ginger ale and saltines and that’s about it. I expect that to change over the weekend though. Look out Moody’s<\/a>, here I come.<\/p>\n

Making:<\/u> Nada. Been shootin’ some film.<\/p>\n

Reading:<\/u> Dad’s and my March challenge <\/a> book for the month “The Death of Virgil” by Hermann Brach<\/strong>, the first to really be a fucking challenge to read. Abstractly, it is beautiful and elegaic and almost like reading Virgil himself. But the act of reading it…is tough. Not always what I want on the El, my main reading time. Dad was struggling too…until he burst ahead, read the last 40 pages and called me to crow! Dang! Have taken a few breaks for some others, but now I’ve really got to buckle down. Month’s almost over!<\/p>\n

Watching:<\/u> Fresh TV. Ah. As welcome as Spring. Bones<\/strong>, I’ve missed you. Also obsessively watching both NEW and VERY OLD CSI<\/strong>. I know, right? Catching up on season and rewatching whatever season (2003?) is currently showing from about 4-7 on SPIKE TV. Watching it so much, DNA is all I can think about, everywhere I am, everything I touch, “whoops, just left a little DNA right there, hope no one gets murdered on this corner later…” Oh and season 1 Battlestar Galactica<\/strong>. Fuckin’ awesome. Helo is my fave. Season 2 better get here lickety split (if you think I didn’t leave the sickbed to go feverishly, deliriously hunting for it in the ‘hood the other night, you are way wrong).<\/p>\n

Listening:<\/u> Dang, I’ve been watching so much BSG and CSI, listenin’ has had a tough time staying in the game this week. I haven’t even listened to most of the CDs I bought in Japan, as someone just reminded me! That said, I’m loving the new album from Meg Hutchinson <\/strong><\/a>I bought at her show the other night. And by loving I mean ouch, my heart just broke into 100 pieces but play it again, would ya? Also loving two recent EPs by Joseph Arthur<\/strong>, one all distorty and dark and the other less dark but as melancholy as always (and love it so). Got a lot of new stuff waitin’ in the wings. More to say soon! Seriously!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
